9.5mm SATA 2nd HDD/SSD Caddy – Transform Your Laptop’s DVD Bay into Extra Storage
Maximize your laptop’s potential with the Universal 9.5mm SATA 2nd HDD/SSD Hard Drive Caddy — a sleek, tool-free adapter designed to replace your underused CD/DVD optical drive and convert that space into a high-speed secondary storage bay. Perfect for gamers, creators, and power users, this caddy lets you add an extra 2.5-inch SATA SSD or HDD (up to 9.5mm thickness) — doubling your storage without sacrificing portability.
Crafted from durable ABS plastic or lightweight aluminum (depending on model), the caddy ensures a snug, secure fit in most mainstream laptops from Dell, HP, Lenovo, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, and more. Installation is simple: just remove your optical drive, slide in the caddy, and connect — no screws or tools required in most cases. Your laptop will recognize the new drive instantly — ideal for adding a fast SSD for your OS/games or a high-capacity HDD for media and backups.
Supports SATA I/II/III interfaces and works with any 2.5” 9.5mm drive — SATA SSDs, hybrid SSHDs, or traditional HDDs. Whether you’re installing a blazing-fast NVMe-to-SATA SSD for game libraries or a 2TB HDD for movies and projects, this caddy unlocks new levels of flexibility.
Includes a SATA-to-SATA data bridge and often comes with a screw kit and optional faceplate to match your laptop’s original optical drive bezel.
